We wish to lay particular stress upon 

 the size and quality of our Bulbs which are 

 larger, healthier and better than those 

 usually sold — for the reason that no expense 

 is spared in manuring and cultivating. Ex- 

 perience having shown us that bulbs so 

 treated are incomparably superior to bulbs 

 grown on impoverished and unfertilized land 

 year after year, which constitutionally wea- 

 kens the bulbs and they give results accord- 

 ingly. This is the general practice— espe- 

 cially among those who endeavor to grow 

 cheaply — to enable them to undersell. 



The so-called Bermuda Lily disease is 

 primarily the result of reduced vitality 

 caused by insufficient plant food in the soil 

 \\ hile there is no crop of bulbs on the inland 

 entirely free from the disease, yet we have 

 less of it in our fields than any other grower 

 as we have always realucd the importance 

 of proper fenilization.

S *' / have been growing your Harrissi ' bulbs /or several 

 Z years. Last season I divided my order, placing one- 

 Z half with you and the other half with another promi- 

 z nent seedsman. Yours were the true Bermuda Har- 

 z risii. ".chile the others were badly mixed with a worth- 

 S less variety which grew to enormous height with a very 

 Z small flower. Your half ivere all of an even size with 

 Z flowers of excellent quality. I had the honor of hav- 

 z ing the finest lilies in Pittsburgh from your bulbs. 

 \ There "cere but few of your plants diseased- probably 

 z jo in the whole batch of 6,ooo bulbs. Yon will have my 

 Z full order next season. ;
